          The 1980s was full on bonkers. A serious disaster multiple times each year. Riots all over the place. Great music. Football hooligans. Page 3. Very few speeding cameras. Lead fumes from petrol. Concrete floored playgrounds with a smattering of broken glass to soften any falls from height. White dog shit. Affordable housing. Affordable higher education. NHS dentists. The best team in LTFCs history. Even Watford flirted with some success. Literally everything was either mad or better.


          outlaws is not the barometer of sanity. You're either Luton full tilt or you are nothing. We have spunked way too much money on shite. The end.

                The smell of burgers and cigarettes at the football, the giddy rush of excitement seeing the pitch at an away ground, running the gauntlet getting home from London via Kings Cross after dark, buying alcohol underage from that dodgy off licence on Marsh Road, tip exxing over your date of birth on a photocopy of your licence of birth and re-photocopying it with a date that made you over 18 to get into pubs, The Tropicana, The Coliseum, Mr Bumbles, The Heights, Ronelles

                  That fruit and veg van that used to come round ringing a bell, water fights with washing up liquid bottles as makeshift water pistols, cycling around everywhere, playing football every single day, trying the jazz cabbage for the first time, getting lucky every now and then with your crushes, school discos, watching scraps at school, bundles if you scored a goal, the mad excitement of being allowed to play on the grass at school during the summer, Whitefields versus Wauluds punch ups, The Moakes pub, the Purley market, Pete Sports

                      Just went on a bit of a nostalgia trip there! Growing in Luton was brilliant. So many good people.

                        Not just Luton. Growing up anywhere.
                        Going out worh your siblings all day to much around by a local stream 3 miles away and coming home only when you were hungry at about 6pm.
                        Snowball fights.
                        Puma Kings
                        Combined shin and ankle pads
                        Spall football kit.
                        Gola trainers
                        Jumpers for goalposts
                        Wallet (or however you spell it when you take it in turns to kick the ball against a wall)
                        Climbing trees
                        Climbing on scaffolding on new build housing estates
                        Ten of my mates sitting on the floor in the back of a Transit van on the way to play football
                        No seat belts
                        No headrests
                        No mobile phones
                        Phoning the bird you fancied from the village phone box coming home after Scouts whilst your mates are laughing at you
                        Putting 50p in the box calling a random number
                        Top of the Pops
                        The FA Cup
                        Panini Stickers


                        Yep, great growing up in the 80s

                      That was my Luton growing up in the 80s. Loved it.

                          We used to buy massive bottles of cider, diamond white I think it was, and cans of red stripe before we could get in pubs.
